Outstanding Police Officer of the Year
The “Outstanding Police Officer of the Year” award was established to recognize officers who have been involved in an incident that demonstrated an act of gallantry and valor at imminent hazard to life with knowledge of the risk that was above and beyond the call of duty.
Consideration of an Officer or Officers for this award shall be based upon the level of participation as being key and instrumental to the successful resolution of the incident.
Officer(s) who are recipients of this award and not a member of the NJHL will also be given a complimentary membership for that year in recognition of their achievement.
